I have tried this several times over the years. It has never been a
complete success, mainly due to the issues that Bruce S raised.

Sitting here at 5:00am having been woken by a bloody great freight
train going through the town, I had a thought.

The classes and symbols for everything(?) are in the .info files in
/usr/share/gambas3/info. Maybe the easiest solution is to parse these
files to get your list.
